The Performance

[earthworm]

I think everyone is hoping that our form can improve, be it for chasing down West Brom, or building a head of steam ready for winning the Play Offs.

Do you think we've seen the form pick up over the last 3 games? We lost at Barnsley, won against Peterborough, though we made it look hard, then we won last night, and it was a bit better.

Are we improving then? Was last night better than the weekend? Is it enough to help us get a draw at Newcastle ... then again, maybe we should be thinking about putting a run together after the Newcastle game!

I didn't go at the weekend but we were definitely much better last night than we were against Barnsley.

I think bar a few performances (brom away, QPR etc) this is pretty much as good as we were during our unbeaten run. The run was founded upon being solid at the back, compact and posing a threat when we had the ball. With clean sheets returning we'll be a threat. There were times luck went with us during that run, and recently it's been going the other way. We're a distance still from playing champagne football regularly as we did against the boing boing. With a young, small squad hats off should be given for the consistancy we have managed this season

We were a little better than against Posh, but then again Palace were a poorer side last night. But you can only beat what's in front of you.

To improve further we need Moussi & Cohen to be playing well - and they were both poor last night, with misplaced & casual passing. If they can up their ante - we can get something at SJP.

Moose takes too long on the ball, and then makes a short wayward pass too often.

It was a bit better. You could see forest threatening to break out the quality football and it was a definite step up from saturday which was dreadful.

Good signs really, and I think getting the second goal yesterday was more important than taking the 3 points. It was like a weight lifted off them.
